KĀKAHU - TIGHTS

We are currently working with the supplier/ manufacturers to remedy the issues we are having with the tights.
Please return to Te Rito The tights that are at fault in a bag labeled (Pononga name, the issue with them) by Friday 23/Feb Rokket will then process the stock and note the problem with manufacturer.
Any new order for tights will be completed once we have trial tested the new and improved tights which are currently being sourced by Rokket.

ROKKET ONLINE
This will be going live March. Date to be confirmed.
JACKETS
2017 Preorder Jackets are due to arrive first week of March. Dates and times for collection will be advised via comms.
POTAE
2017 Preorder Potae can be collected from Te Rito.

Thank you all for being so prompt in making and paying for your orders, a few more to go I know but we are getting there. The vast majority of our pononga are now in kākahu and for the most part are making a real effort to wear the black bottoms as well. We need your help to ensure that all pōnonga now all wear Te Pā kākahu everyday - mufti is no longer an option.

Those that still have pre orders to collect please see below.

We will be processing one more Te Pā bulk order before we hand it over to our supplier ROKKET where orders will be placed direct online through them. See details below re New Orders. AND can we also make sure that all clothing is clearly named so it can always find its way back to its rightful owner and not get lost in a box of other unnamed clothing.

All new orders after this last bulk order will be processed online directly through them by whanau themselves.
